§ 84.2. Issuance of special learner’s permit.
(a) General rule. Upon application of a driver or applicant, the Department will issue a special learner’s permit authorizing the permittee to drive only a dual control motor vehicle while accompanied by and under the immediate supervision of an instructor of an approved driver training program.
(1) The special learner’s permit will be valid for 12 months. It will be reissuable for an additional 12 months provided the applicant is enrolled and remains enrolled in an approved driver training program. A driver will only be issued two dual control learner’s permits within a 5-year period.
(2) The driver’s operating privileges, which will have been recalled under 75 Pa.C.S. § 1519(c) (relating to determination of incompetency), will be temporarily restored only for the limited purpose and term of the special learner’s permit.
(3) A driver whose license has expired or is suspended will be required to pay the applicable fees before the dual control learner’s permit will be issued to ensure that a license can be issued when all required tests have been passed.
(4) As required under 75 Pa.C.S. § 1508 (relating to examination of applicant for driver’s license), a driver who has not been licensed shall successfully pass the general knowledge test prior to being issued a dual control learner’s permit.
(b) Examination. Upon successful completion of an approved driving training program, the permittee may undergo a driver’s examination no more than three times on one dual control learner’s permit. The driver’s examination will be conducted by a person authorized by the Department. Upon successful completion of the examination, the driver’s operating privilege will be renewed or restored, or a driver’s license will be issued to the applicant.
